Overview

A circular flat route mostly on field paths & footpaths with some road walking from Spridlington on the way back to Hackthorn. The distance is approximately 9.5-10.5 miles & would be suitable for people who want to try a brisk walk (around 3mph) for the first time. 
Note - The distance may change to avoid a waterlogged path. There could be a bit extra road walking if avoiding a water pipeline. The options will be offered to anyone who joins the walk.
